Wonderful Introduction to Ganesha!,
By
This review is from: Ganesha: The Auspicious... The Beginning (Paperback)
This book is an indispensible book to me. I really love it. There are so many pictures beautiful calandar prints, and a wealth of stories and information abut our loving remover of obstacles god, Ganesh! It is such a great book. Even if you already think you know everything about the beautiful elephant headed deity, there will be some oral stories written in this book by the author that are very interesting. Lots of reading! Lots of pictures and paintings! I really enjoy this book time and time again. Highly recommeded! Om Shri Ganeshaaya Namah!
